F3: Fun and Frustration (2022)

This follow-up to the hit F2: Fun and Frustration reuses the lead cast but tells a new story. This time the theme is money: Venkatesh plays a man with night blindness and Varun Tej a man with a stammer, and both, along with their partners, families and a gallery of hangers-on, are desperate to get rich fast. When a chance comes to pass themselves off as heirs to a wealthy industrialist, the schemes, double-crosses and slapstick pile up. Anil Ravipudi plays it as broad family comedy, with Rajendra Prasad, Sunil and Ali among the comic support and a special song by Pooja Hegde. Music is by Devi Sri Prasad. F3 was a box-office success in the summer of 2022.
